Randy Vásquez to start Saturday vs. Marlins

Randy Vásquez

SD Starting Pitcher #98

Player Stats

Randy Vásquez will start Saturday’s game against the Marlins.

It’s a decent spot for Vásquez considering the opponent and setting since loanDepot park is a notoriously pitcher-friendly setting. The 27-year-old hurler tossed three scoreless innings against the Royals in his first outing back from the injured list last Sunday. He doesn’t offer enough strikeout potential be a streaming option for fantasy managers outside of extremely deep leagues, but he should be able to hold onto a rotation spot with the Padres for the final two months.

Randy Vásquez allowed four runs in five innings as the bulk pitcher against the Guardians on Saturday.

Vásquez gave up seven hits, walked one and struck out five. The 27-year-old right-hander entered in the third inning as his usage continues to fluctuate. Vásquez had won his last two starts entering play Saturday, but the Padres also used him for multiple relief appearances of at least three innings in July. He has a 4.30 ERA. Vásquez is lined up to start against the Twins at home next weekend.

Randy Vásquez worked five innings and allowed two runs in Sunday night’s win over the Astros.

Despite giving up eight hard-hit balls, Vásquez yielded a mere two hits. He’s allowed just the two runs over 15 2/3 innings in his last three appearances, but he’s also struck out only three in that span, which wouldn’t seem to bode well. He’ll likely stay in the rotation for now and face the Guardians next weekend, but after that, the Padres might be able to pick from him and Walker Buehler once Joe Musgrove returns.

Randy Vásquez tossed six shutout innings with one strikeout in a win against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Vásquez has been alternating in and out of the rotation over the last several weeks. Tuesday’s start was an excellent one for him as he held the D-backs scoreless over six frames. He scattered just two hits and one walk, relying on weak contact as he struck out one batter. The 27-year-old right-hander ends the day with a 4.19 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, and a 65/31 K/BB ratio across 101 innings. With Casey Mize and Robbie Ray now in San Diego, there’s a good chance Vásquez returns to a long relief role in the bullpen.

The Padres will have Randy Vásquez start Tuesday’s game against the D-backs.

Vásquez last pitched Thursday against the Giants, throwing 4 2/3 scoreless innings in relief. JP Sears started that game, but he was in the pen and gave up two runs in an inning in Sunday’s game.

SD Starting Pitcher #98

Randy Vásquez pitched 4 2/3 scoreless innings out of the pen Thursday against the Giants.

Vásquez outpitched starter JP Sears tonight as he tries to find his way back into the San Diego rotation. He’s allowed three runs in 11 innings over four appearances since coming off the IL on July 19. Since he threw 65 pitches tonight, he probably won’t be available again until Monday at the earliest.

SD Starting Pitcher #98

Randy Vásquez allowed one run with no strikeouts over 2 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Marlins on Saturday.

Vásquez started this one after a few relief appearances. He tossed two scoreless innings, stranding two runners in the first inning, then gave up one run on a hit batter, base hit, and sacrifice fly in the third. Vásquez would be done with two outs in the inning at 37 pitches. He did not record a strikeout. The 27-year-old right-hander ends the day with a 4.68 ERA, 1.51 WHIP, and a 63/29 K/BB ratio across 90 1/3 innings. With a day off on Monday, he may revert to long relief his next time out.

In his first day back from the IL, Randy Vásquez pitched three scoreless innings in relief Sunday against the Royals.

Instead of giving Vásquez a start against the Braves this week, the Padres decided to have him piggyback with Germán Márquez today. Vásquez definitely put together the better performance of the two, so maybe he’ll start next time through, assuming that he isn’t needed in relief again before then.

Padres activated RHP Randy Vásquez from the 15-day injured list.

The 27-year-old hurler had been sidelined since July 3 due to a right ankle bruise. He’s likely to rejoin the Padres’ rotation on Monday or Tuesday against the Braves in Atlanta. Jhony Brito was optioned to Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move on Sunday.

Padres placed RHP Randy Vásquez on the 15-day injured list with a right ankle bruise.

Vásquez was injured when he took a comebacker off of his ankle during the first inning on Thursday. While he only sustained a bruise, it was going to cost him his next turn in the rotation, so the Padres made the wise decision to place him on the injured list and get a fresh arm added to their bullpen.

Padres manager Craig Stammen said they’ll be “overly cautious” on LHP Randy Vásquez (fainting) but that he’s “all clear” on x-rays on his ankle.

X-Rays were negative, tests came back clean, but it sounds like Vásquez demonstrated some concussion symptoms and it wouldn’t be surprising if he wound up on the 7-day IL.

Brett Callahan tripled in two runs in his MLB debut against the White Sox on Sunday.

Callahan joined a rare list of players who picked up their first hits as a three-bagger, and it gave the Tigers an early 2-0 lead. The 24-year-old is not considered a top prospect, but he could get a chance to see some time with a rash of injuries to the usual Tigers’ outfielders. It’s hard to fathom much fantasy success here, but congrats to Callahan on the first knock.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he misspoke prior to Sunday’s game and that Cody Bellinger’s rehab assignment isn’t expected to start until Thursday or Friday.

Boone said before the game that Bellinger would begin playing in minor league games Tuesday. This timetable makes a return next weekend less likely, though it’s still possible if the team decides he needs only one or two minor league games as he returns from a hamstring strain.

Colt Keith went 2-for-2 with a solo homer in a loss to the White Sox on Sunday.

Keith hit a 354-foot shot off Sean Burke in the third inning to give the Tigers a 4-1 lead; a lead that Detroit would not be able to hold. He also singled and upped his average to .269 with a .744 OPS, nine homers and 32 RBI.

Munetaka Murakami hit a two-run homer as the White Sox picked up a 7-5 victory over the Tigers on Sunday.

That homer puts Murakami up to 29 homers on the season; an impressive total even before you consider he missed time with his hamstring injury. The 26-year-old rookie has gone deep four times in the month of August, which has helped compensate for his less-than-ideal .188 average for the month. Murakami is going to frustrate at times — that’s a bit of an understatement — but the power production helps turn the bitter into better.

Ryan Weathers continued a tremendous stretch of pitching on Sunday against the Blue Jays, throwing 7 1/3 innings of one-run ball while striking out four.

Weathers allowed six hits and one walk in a no-decision. He was in line for the victory before ninth-inning defensive struggles sent the game to extras. Regardless, the southpaw has been on quite the run. He entered Sunday’s outing with a 2-0 record and a 0.74 ERA over his previous four starts. Acquired from the Marlins this past offseason, Weathers has been a key piece of the Yankees’ strong rotation. He’ll get a rematch with the Blue Jays next time out.
